The AirEngine 9703-H is a new generation of high-performance wireless access controller independently developed by Huawei for large enterprise campuses, branch offices, and school campuses. It can manage up to 20,480 access points (APs) and has a forwarding capacity of up to 160Gbps. It offers flexible configuration of the number of wireless access points it can manage, providing excellent scalability. When used with Huawei's full range of 802.11n/802.11ac/802.11ax/802.11be wireless access points, it can be used to build large campus networks, enterprise office networks, wireless metropolitan area networks, and hotspot coverage applications.
1. High capacity, high performance
It supports multiple high-speed interfaces such as 100G/40G/25G/10G/GE Combo, provides a forwarding capability of 160Gbps, and can manage 20,480 APs.
2. Flexible networking
Supports direct connection, side-mounted, and bridged/mesh networking modes, as well as centralized and local data forwarding modes. It is compatible with and manages all Huawei APs, enabling hybrid networking of 802.11n, 802.11ac, 802.11ax, and 802.11be APs, protecting user investments.
3. High reliability
Supports WLAN AC 1+1 hot standby and port redundancy backup via LACP (Link Aggregation Control Protocol) and MSTP (Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol), providing comprehensive high-reliability design and doubling the reliability of services.
